Every year, my old man (a Pompey fan) takes me and my lad to Upton Park for one game as a birthday treat ... Over the year's we've seen Wallsall, West Brom, Pompey, Blackpool and others, all 0-0 draws ..... Guess where we are going on Saturday afternoon after a fry up at Ken's Cafe??

It depends on whether you follow the "if my Auntie had b*llocks she would be my Uncle" route of maths!

First trip over since the Barnsley game having given the Coventry game a swerve. If anyone's got a spare for the Ipswich game (my plea is in the ticket forum) I can meet up and exchange on Saturday.

Nottingham Forest absolutely fell apart last night. If we can can't comfortably beat them I will be very disappointed.

Judging by a few Forest fan's comments I've seen, they aren't looking forward to this one! :

"5-0 West Ham, followed by Cotterill walking. Hopefully.."

"5-0 West Ham, followed by Cotterill saying on Radio Nottingham how unlucky we were, that we were excellent and should have won it 5-6.."

"4-0 west ham"

"Given that we lost 4-1 at home and we now seem to be playing twice and bad, I'm predicting 8-2 to Wham."

"Though as there's no chance of us scoring two, I'll revise this to 8-0."

Nailed on 0-0 then!

Schteeve walked out on Forest when he couldn't get any money to patch up a crap squad .The fans were deliriously happy iirc .

The same fans, watching the same squad stuggle under a different Manager , now want shot of him...........

Dare I say it, but ........players . As their greatest ever Manager once said " if a player can't trap a ball by the time he reaches me, I can't teach him" ....or words to that effect .

Forest are going down , and we need to help them on the way . No prisoners !

Like Mo Farah we are set to strike,

Tracked leaders early on. Moved up to challenge the leader and on Saturday make the crucial move to the front. We now break the field with a concerted increase in pace and a mental demoralisation of our fellow competitors as they see the biggest gun of all opening their legs and pulling clear of the field.

Or better, leave it till the last 200m Mo :lol:

5-0 to West Ham, with their players tweeting on their mobile phones throughout the game.

Tweets like : "Just passed the ball again", "Just shot at their goal again", "On the train, finished early, going home"

honestly, you lot are on something, or you haven't seen us play this season.

It will take five minutes and two misplaced passes for the crowd to start moaning

This game has "respect the point" written all over it. Home team under pressure, away team nothing to lose and low expectations.
